Nintendo will implement improvements in the eShop for the Switch 2

The Nintendo Switch 2 will officially launch on June 5, and along with it, significant improvements will be implemented in the Nintendo eShop, a matter that has raised concerns among users since the debut of the original console. These updates are expected to address criticisms regarding slow navigation and the abundance of low-quality games that often saturate the digital store.

A much more optimal and pleasant browsing experience

In a recent meeting with developers, Nintendo announced that the advanced capabilities of the Switch 2 hardware will allow for faster and smoother navigation in the eShop. Takuhiro Dohta, senior director of planning and development for Nintendo entertainment, commented that “thanks to the system’s performance capabilities, the eShop on Switch 2 has improved and works seamlessly even when displaying a large number of games”. This improvement aims to make finding the game that users want to play an integral part of the system experience.

In addition, a new feature called Game Finds for You will be introduced, which will facilitate the search for games according to users’ interests and trends. Kouichi Kawamoto, producer in the same area, explained that this feature will allow players to see screenshots and videos of games, displaying a carousel of titles that might interest them, based on their preferences, such as games on their wish list or trending titles.

Users will be able to make pre-orders for the Switch 2 starting April 9, with two options available: an individual console for 469.99 euros or a package that includes a digital copy of Mario Kart World for 509.99 euros. This launch marks a new chapter for Nintendo and could redefine the game purchasing experience in its eShop.
